	abstract = {Since men and women on dialysis need three time a week treatment, there can be an interruption in their work or career thus they can experience some dysfunctional career thought. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to explore the correlationship among dysfunctional career thoughts, dialysis variables and demographic characteristics of persons diagnosed with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis in the Bahamas. The aim is to investigate the correlation among dysfunctional career thoughts and dialysis variables, and demographic characteristics (e.g. age, education, marital status). Persons living in the Bahamas on dialysis diagnosed with ESRD were recruited from a local hospital. Results revealed an overall effect of the participants{\textquoteright} characteristics on dysfunctional career thoughts was significant. Participants{\textquoteright} age between 19 and 28 had a positive correlation with the dysfunctional career thoughts. Accordingly, participants with junior high school certificates significantly have a negative effect on dysfunctional career thought.  In addition, further results showed the marital status of participants, especially related to their non-married status, which appeared significant though this significance was weak. Implication for integration of career counseling and nursing implication for persons on dialysis have been developed.},
